Description:
Golden American is a classic European cigarette brand that aims to convey American style and quality. The packaging is light beige, with a clear brand accent on a red background, and the coat of arms visible at the top gives the pack a sense of prestige. The pack is unused, vacuum-sealed, and without warnings about the harms of smoking - which indicates that it was produced before the EU directive on health warnings (2003/2009) came into force.
Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Average. While not an extremely rare mark, Golden American packs from older series (especially those without graphic warnings) are becoming increasingly rare in collections, so they may be of interest to collectors. EU trademarks before changes in EU laws.
-
Condition assessment: Unopened, in excellent condition, foil intact.
-
Historical data and popularity: Produced at the Tabák Kutná Hora factory (Czech Republic), which operated until 2011, when Philip Morris took over its operations. After that, the brand became harder to find, and some series were discontinued.
